I dunno Doug, I've heard outright lying ass BS coming from the mouths of some folks with a prefectly straight face...

... one guy once told me that while sailing offshore he sailed into a hurricane in something like an O'day 27. He and his dog supposedly survived because the guy duct taped both he and his dog to the mast for safety. He fell asleep while duct taped to the mast with his dog in hurricane conditions and woke up to the sounds of waves crashing on the shore. That's when his survival instincts went into full swing. yadda, yadda, yadda...

There was this one gal who even tried to convince me that when she fell asleep on a boat in the Chesapeake bay, she woke up and she was off the coast of Hawaii. No shit.

I've been around complete bullshitters in my time and most of them believe everything they say. Me, call me a skeptic for no other reason than me hearing so much bull shit in my life.
